I purchased these last week for my brother who has been having major issues with his legs and swelling. Right now he has an issue with his veins where without the compression it keeps swelling and causing excruciating pain. After reviving these and putting gem on he said he immediately felt the pain go down and after just an hour or so the swelling went down majorly. These are a great product and help many people in need of you have circulation problems or you work out a lot I would deffinetly recommend these

I have had these now for two weeks. I purchased them directly from Cheers. They are high-quality construction and fit very well. I would say that they are sized very accurately. They do seem tight at first, but that is the point, isn’t it? I like the stitching reinforced edges. They are very smooth and do not make a huge seam bump like other brands. Overall, these are excellent quality at an excellent price. Besides, they come with a 100% money-back guarantee, so you risk nothing to try a pair today!

FJM–December 20, 2017

I have arthritis and can’t go grocery shopping without being in pain half way through. I own knee braces but when my knees have extra support and compression, I really feel the pain in the other places like my calf and ankles that don’t have the same support and compression. I tried this ankle sleeve and it does the trick. The material is very light and soft like a dress sock but it still provides the compression needed for the pain relief I need in my ankle. It’s not hard to slide on or off and I forget I am wearing it but when I think about why I am not in as much pain, I remember that I have it on. I am happy with the sleeves would gift them to anyone I know needing the same relief. I also have the calf sleeve and it’s just as good.

I was looking for a sleeve to provide ankle support and relieve pain. I exercise on daily basis doing yoga, spinning classes, and 3 mile walk. My left ankle had just had enough and was giving up on me. I wanted a sleeve that I could use with my sneakers and cycling shoes. This fit perfectly, very thin and great support. Can’t tell I have it on!. I am a US 7.5 shoe size and the medium fits perfect. Nice compression, not too tight. Have washed it twice and aired dried. Being using it daily to exercise for 3 weeks and has kept it form nicely. I l love it! and had already place an order for another one. Excellent customer service too!

After a sprained ankle took longer than I anticipated to heal a friend recommended I get the Dr Arthritis copper infused compression support. Initially I thought that perhaps this was all overkill but I am glad that I thought sod it and got it anyway. This is a great product. My ankle was feeling MUCH better in just one day and I could go back to training for my half marathon 2 days after using it!
The compression is significant enough to feel it whist being light enough to wear for extended periods of time comfortably.
One of the things that I think makes this ankle support superior to other ankle supports i have tried on the market is the doctor written guide that comes with it. It is filled with great little exercises to aid recovery which has easy to follow written instructions and pictures to follow. In addition there are lots of other tips and tricks from the doctors to aid recovery and to keep pain free which I will continue to use even after my ankle has fully recovered.
For reference I am an average sized female UK shoe size 5 (US sized 7) and the medium was a good fit.

When I received these I tried them on and they fit nice and sung. They really supported my ankle yet they were not to bulky and after a while I could not even tell I had them on. By the end of the day my ankles did not hurt like they used to. This is truly a fantastic product and I highly recommend it.

I gave this to my dad because he has been having trouble after continually playing high impact sports. He loved it! The material is very light weight but still gives lots of support and he can barely even tell it is on. He was especially impressed with the exercises that were included that he felt was very helpful and informative. I also had to deal with customer service when their was an issue I had to resolve when placing my order. I received very prompt responses and dealt with very friendly staff.

A very lightweight but comfortable ankle brace that allows me to protect my ankle without any limitations. The sleeve is thin but strong and supportive enough and can easily be worn with shoes while doing sports. Much better than those thick straps out there! The product also comes with a very informative booklet discussing the different ankle conditions as well as ankle strengthening exercises that I have been doing. Great product and would recommend!

My girl takes dance and often has ankle pains – she wore this for additional support in class and loved it – she said that it was enough support to feel good and I love that it is not rigid enough to bother mobility. She wears a six/seven women’s shoe and we got her a medium – the fit is great. It slides on easily over the foot and slips off. The material is easily washable and does not smell as bad after wearing as some of the other braces we have tried.

VICTORY–December 20, 2017

I use this primarily for when I go running or walking to help alleviate the pain I experience from shin splints (which OMG, they hurt like hell). This has been ahhmazing in giving relief. I initially got it for my husband, but it ended up being a bit small, but fits me perfect. So yay! I’ve reaped the benefits.

ABOUT THE PRODUCT

Why choose the Dr. Arthritis ankle sleeve?

The material

The success of the sleeve is largely related to its material composition of 88% copper nylon and 12% spandex. The high performance material is stretchy yet extremely tough providing both compression and durability. Not only is it effective; it lasts. In addition, the copper material has anti-odour and anti-bacterial qualities enabling comfortable all day wear. At the top of the ankle sleeve there is anti-slip band. This allows you to carry on with all your daily tasks without having to worry about our sleeve sliding off. Remember, this product is designed by doctors, so not only are you investing in a quality product but one designed to help you find actual symptom relief.

The handbook

Further differentiating this sleeve from other ankle support products available, you will receive your very own ‘Dr. Arthritis Handbook’. You will be able to learn about arthritis as well as the various other conditions our ankle sleeve helps with as well as focused strengthening/rehabilitation exercises to aid recovery. At the end of the handbook we share with you our very own top ten tips for managing your symptoms which are not to be missed. We wish to share this booklet with you as in our experience we have found that doing a few simple things right can greatly improve your symptoms and thus your quality of life. We feel a little change can go a long way. Please scroll down to see a birds eye glance into one of the Handbook sections below.

Our ankle sleeve helps with the following conditions (discussed in more detail in the Dr. Arthritis Handbook):

Arthritis in the ankle

Osteoarthritis is the main form of arthritis affecting the ankle joint. This occurs due to wear and tear and is generally associated with age or previous injury. Rheumatoid arthritis, an autoimmune arthritis, also does occur but is much rarer. Usually rheumatoid arthritis will affect both ankles equally and is more common in females.
Symptoms of ankle arthritis include tenderness or pain, reduced ability to move or weight bear, stiffness in the joint and swelling.

Plantar fasciitis

Plantar fasciitis is a common cause for heel pain with 1 in 10 adults suffering from this condition. It occurs more frequently if you are on your feet a lot, have poorly fitting shoes, overweight or have a tight Achilles tendon. However, often there is no apparent cause. The condition occurs when there is inflammation of your plantar fascia, which is a strong band of tissue stretching from your heel to your middle foot bones. It acts as a support for the arch of your foot as well as a shock-absorber. Pain can occur anywhere on the underside of your heel and sometimes, there is a spot which is tender to touch 1-1.5 inches from your heel. Often symptoms disappear with rest over a period of a few months. However, compression, ensuring you wear comfortable well-fitted footwear and pain relief all help. Other treatment options include heel pads and arch supports, rehabilitation exercises and rarely steroid injections or surgery.

Sprains & Strains

Usually these are the result of doing more activity than you are used to. A sprain occurs when ligaments (bands of tissues that connect bones to one another) have been stretched whereas a strain occurs when muscle fibres stretch or tear. Painkillers, rest, ice, compression and elevation form the mainstay of treatment. Exercise such as swimming and cycling are low impact exercises which may help recovery. To prevent these injuries, it is important to stretch before and after exercise and ensure comfortable well-fitted footwear.

Achilles tendonitis

The Achilles tendon is the longest tendon in your body attaching your calf muscles to your heel bone. This condition occurs when your tendon gets inflamed. It is often caused by overexertion although can be associated with conditions such as rheumatoid, reactive and psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis and diabetes. You may experience symptoms of pain and swelling in the back of your heel, tight calf muscles and limited range of motion (especially when flexing your foot). Sometimes the skin on your heel is overly warm to touch. You are also more prone to rupture of the tendon. Treatment includes rest, ice, compression and elevation, and sometimes steroid injections or surgery may be indicated.

Torn ligaments/tendons

Ligaments are bands of fibrous tissues which connect bones at the ankle joint whereas tendons connect muscle to bone. A tear in either of these usually occurs during high intensity sport and may cause pain, warmth and swelling. An Achilles rupture is the most common tear near the ankle joint and usually occurs when there is a sudden force on the foot or ankle. With a complete tear you may even hear a sound that has been described similar to a gunshot. Treatment involves wearing a cast or brace for several weeks and if indicated, an operation.
